Deftones To Issue Limited Edition Cassette Single With “Koi No Yokan” Pre-Orders

The Deftones have launched pre-orders for their highly anticipated new album, “Koi No Yokan“. The group aren’t exactly out to impress with the options however, offering the following as part of the package which can now be picked up on Deftones.com:

- Full Album on CD delivered on 11/13/12

- Instant Download of ‘Tempest
- 24″ x 24″ Limited Edition Lithograph

    • They give the first single out for free digitally, then issue a cassette tape?!? Well, where is the flexible record like what McDonalds gave away in the 1980s with the BLT song on it? And where they hell is the preorder with some vinyl?

      Smashing Pumpkins did the same thing with the recent deluxe edition of Pisces Iscariot. It’s meant to be a neat little gimmick, not the main attraction.

      Still have my old cassettes, and a couple players. Why would people throw away old stuff? If it still works you can box it up and put it away in the attic or spare room or something. I’ve still got my Atari 800XL home computer, bragging about it’s 64k memory on the box. Don’t care about getting another cassette though, if I have the CD. If the cassette contained non-album tracks, then I’d get worked up about it.

          I keep old audio stuff because I own a studio. It always comes in handy. My old game systems I keep because I play them. The only other old shit I’ve held on to is my G1 Decepticons. Other than that, my house is pretty empty.

        • Owning a studio doesn’t mean that little shack you have in your backyard. You probably belong on the tv show “Hoarders.” I bet you have cockroaches, rats and centipedes playing tackle football in your living room.

    • you can actually just buy the tape at the show. It comes with a digital download of the album that will be released on November 13th. 15 bucks you get a tape and a download of the album, I thought it was worth it, and after listening to rosemary on tape, it definitely was worth it.
